  • Email Exchanges Between Wokingham Borough Council And
    From: Sent: 27 March 2020 11:36 To: [email protected] Subject: GE202003362 - ONR resposne to Wokingham Borough Council Local plan Update Follow Up Flag: Follow up Flag Status: Completed Dear Sir/Madam, In response to your emails dated 3 February and 18 March regarding the 2020 Wokingham Borough Local Plan Update consultation, please find below ONR’s response, which is provided in line with our Land Use Planning policy published here http://www.onr.org.uk/land-use-planning.htm. Since ONR responded to the previous draft Local Plan Update consultation on 21 January 2019 (see email below) the proposed development locations included in the draft local plan have significantly changed. Additionally, the Detailed Emergency Planning Zone (DEPZ) for the AWE Burghfield site has been re-determined by West Berkshire District Council under the Radiation (Emergency Preparedness and Public Information) Regulations (REPPIR) 2019 resulting in a larger DEPZ. ONR’s current position remains that we would be likely to object to: • developments within the DEPZ, unless the West Berkshire District Council emergency planner provides adequate assurance to ONR that any adverse impact on the operability and viability of the off-site emergency plan could be mitigated. • large scale developments within the circular 5km Outer Consultation Zone (OCZ), which extends beyond the DEPZ from grid reference SU684680, unless the West Berkshire District Council emergency planner provides adequate assurance to ONR that any adverse impact on the operability and viability of the off-site emergency plan could be mitigated. ONR has previously responded regarding the two development locations below which are included in both the 2018/19 Local Plan Update consultation and the 2020 Local Plan Update consultation: 1.

    General Guidance on making a representation on the Draft Managing Development Delivery Development Plan Document (Participation version) – June 2011 The Managing Development Delivery DPD will amplify the approach in the adopted Core Strategy regarding where development could go within the borough to 2026 and how it will ensure exceptional development is delivered which enhances the area’s character and environment. The Managing Development Delivery DPD when finalised will include policies about where everything from homes, shops, offices, schools and leisure facilities should be developed, including design and landscaping. The Draft version of the document details the various options for planning policies that the Council considers are appropriate for the borough having regard to the framework provided by the Core Strategy together with national policy and previous consultation. Through this consultation, the Council is seeking your views on whether you think these approaches to planning policy are appropriate. You do not have to comment on all the areas listed in the document. Further information on the maps A number of issues are only likely to affect specific parts of the borough i.e. areas close to rivers could be affected by flooding. To help you understand how the Council’s policy approaches could affect you, it has produced maps showing which areas would be covered. Where the approach could affect the whole borough, the Council has produced three maps which between them illustrate how the policies would apply. The three maps and
